PRIEST
Born on the Island of St. Kitt's, British West Indies, in 1870.
He graduated from Lincoln Univereity in 1899, and later entered
the Divinity School at Philadelphia where he completed his train-
ing for the Sacred Ministry. He came to the Diocese of North
Carolina in 1903, was ordained deacon hy Bishop Cheshire in Feb.,
1904, and was advanced to the Priesthood on July 25th, 1905. For
about seventeen years he served faithfully the missions of St.
Cyprian, Oxford, and St. Simeon, Satterwhite, until, on the morn-
ing of September the 16th, 1920, he was called to his reward.
3n ilcmortam
BatJiti |9oung Cooper
The sudden death on December 20th of David Young Cooper,
of Henderson, N. C, was a great shock and grief not only to his
devoted family, but a multitude of friends thoughout the country.
Nothwithstanding his seventy-three years, his "eye was not dim
nor his natural force abated." Time had dealt gently with him
so far as human perception might avail. Yet, as was felt by all
who knew him well, he was taken away as he might himself have
chosen — in the very midst of the service to which he so un-
stintedly gave himself.
A man of unusual ability and extraordinary energy, Mr.
Cooper's life had been one of constant action. From his entrance,
a mere youth, into the Confederate Army, to the time when came
hlo final call, he was unceasing in the use of acute faculties and
dynamic energies.
In the business world of his city, his State, and the Nation
lie held high place, and was a trusted conselor in his Parish and his
Diocese.
His geniality in daily intercourse with his fellowmen was a
marked characteristic. He never seemed too busy or too burdened
to have a kindly word or cheerful smile or cordial handshake for
every one he met, while he was a host of unusual graciousness.
And in his beneficences, which were quietly made and many,
there was striking universality beyond class limitations.
For almost, or quite, thirty years he was a member of the
Vestry of Holy Innocents Parish, Henderson, N. C. He was loyal
in his support, one who could be counted on at the meetings of the
Vestry, a constant attendant upon the Church's services, a regular
and humble recipient of the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus
Christ in the Holy Eucharist.
We recognize, feel, and lament his loss to family, friends.
State, and the Church.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE DIOCESE OF NORTH CAROLINA
The Trustees of the Diocese respectfully report that the Vestry
of the Church of the Holy Comforter at Burlington having proposed
to donate the old building used as their parish church to the
authorities of Alamance County upon certain terms agreed upon,
have approved of the same, with the suggestion that as the build-
ing is to be used as a place of public worship at the County Home,
the County Commissioners should agree to keep it in good repair
and should use it in accordance with the terms of the donation.
This report was referred to the following committee:
Messrs. L. H. Clement, S. P. Collier, and 11. P. Foxhall.
Eev. Joseph D. C. Wilson presented the petition of the Mis-
sion of the Good Shepherd, Cooleemee, for admission into union

Finance which was adopted as follows:
REPORT OF COMMITTEE OX FINANCE
The Committee on Finance met in the parish-house of Christ
Church, Raleigh, on January 4, 1921, and transacted the following
business:
The Treasurer of the Diocese submitted his report for the year
ending Dec. 31, 1920. This report showed a balance to the credit
of the Episcopal and Contingent Fund of $1460.80. In the matter
of collections the treasurer made such a remarkable showing that
the Committee desires to commend it, and call especiall attention
to it. Assessments for the year 1920 were $8,442.00. Of this
amount, the treasurer on January 1, 1921, had collected $8,069.81.
24 JouKXAL OF Pkoceedixgs
leaving due at that time the remarkable small sum of $382.19^ In
other words, on the last day of the year, he had collected more
than 959r of the total assessments. We believe that this record
has not been equalled hitherto.
In making up a proposed budget for this j^ear, it appeared
that we would need $11,185.00 to meet current expenses. This
budget appears below as a part of this report.- The Committee
examined carefully the sources of income, and came to the con-
clusion that we might reduce slightly the basis of assessment for
the E. & C. Fund, which we recommend in a resolution below.
The Committee ordered the Treasurer's books audited by Maj.
J. J. Bernard, Certified Public Accountant.
The Chairman of the Committee was requested to furnish to
the Treasurer, within ten days, a Schedule of Assessments for the
E. & C. Fund.
The treasurer was asked to make requisition upon the Treas-
urer of the Convocation of Raleigh for $32.00. the amount of in-
surance premium on the residence of the Archdeacon, which amount
had previously been paid by the Treasurer of the Diocese.
Following is the budget offered by the Committee for the Con-
vention's approval:
Bishop's salary $5,000.00
Bishop's traveling expenses 500.00
Bishop's clerical help 300.00
Toward salary Suffragan Bishop 825.00
Premium on Pensions 650.00
Repairs Episcopal Residence 400.00
Printing Journal 1,050.00
Carolina Churchman 300.00

Salary of Treasurer 500.00
Salary of Secretary 300.00
Expenses Delegates Diocesan Convention 300.00
Expenses Delegates General Convention 200.00
Miscellaneous 700.00
Total $11,185.00
The following resolutions offered for the consideration of the
Convention were also adopted:
(l)That 12% be assessed upon Minister's Salary and Current
Expenses to meet the requirements of the E. & C. Fund.
(2) In order that there may be no misunderstanding as to the
meaning of the terms "Minister's Salary and Current Expenses" as
uted in resolution (1), the Secretary of the Convention is ins::ructed,
in making up reports for the Journal, to group Current Expenses
as follows: Under group (a) put item 1 of Current Expenses.
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 25
under group (b) put items 3, 4. and 9. Under |^) ^^^ ^^^^J^
6 and 7 Under this arrangement assessments foi the E. & C 1^ una
shall be made upon groups (a) and (b) This resolution shall con-
tinue in force until repealed by the Convention. -
(3) That the Treasurer shall be instructed to pay to the
Suffragan Bishop ^825.00 a year or so much thereof as shall be
necessary to make the total of the Suffragan Bishop's salary and
traveling expenses ^2500.00 a year, beginning January 1, 19^1.
(4) In accordance with resolution (7) of the Finance Com-
nattee's report in the Journal of 1920, page 27, th^t^^^^;^^^^.^^;
put in the budget this year, as it was last year, to help defiay
the expenses of clerical delegates to the next Tri-ennial Convention.

The Special Treasurer of the St. Mary's Fund— the $2.50,000
Fund for Buildings and Endowment — report that the total pledges
to date as now carried on the books for the campaign in the Caro-
linas amount to $146,494.67, distributed as follows: .
Diocese of North Carolina . . .$ 84,552.92
Diocese of East Carolina 24,517.00
District of Asheville 5,907.50
Diocese of South Carolina 30,000
From outside the Carolinas 1,520.25
$146,497.67
The quota for the Carolinas was set at $200,000.
The campaign outside the Carolinas — the National Campaign,
with headquarters in New York — was inaugurated last fall with
the object of raising $100,000. It is too early to judge of the re-
sults of this part of the general campaign. To date some $3358,
has been paid in.
The Treasurer has received from payments on the pledges in
the Carolinas, interest on Liberty Bonds, etc., a total of $83,850.66
in cash and $4,550 in Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps, etc., a
total of a little less than $90,000. Of this amount $17,825 has been
expended on the campaign in the Carolinas; $7,500 for the National
Campaign; and $50,000 has been applied to the improvements in
Smedes Hall and the heating system at the School.
The above figures are approximately correct, the exact balances
are not accessible at the present moment.
Payments on a large number of the pledges are in arrears and
a renewed effort to bring these up to date would mean much to
the Fund.
The Trustees have to report that supplementing the improve-
ments in the buildings and heating plant made in the summer
of 1919, considerable additions to the equipment were made dur-
ing the past summer, especially in modernizing the Laundry Equip-
ment ($3500) and in improving the equipment of the Music De-
partment ($3500).
The buildings and equipment are now in fair shape though
they will require a decided expenditure each year to keep them
in the proper condition.
Diocese of ^orth Carolina, 1921 27
To repeat the statement in the report of last year, while the
School plant has been greatly Improved, there are still many press-
ing needs to be met calling for liberal use of funds. Not to men-
tion other matters, without any increase in the number of resi-
dent students, which is now limited to 200, there is need of
much increased dormitory space, while the bonded debt of $40,000.00
is yet unpaid.
Perhaps it should also be stated that the figures heretofore
given in this report do not include the one-half interest in the Trust
Fund of $30,000, created by Dr. Lawrence S. Holt, and in the
custody of the Providence Life and Trust Co. of Philadelphia.
The patronage of the School for the year 1920-21 is thoroughly
satisfactory. The total enrollment is 275, of whom 212 are resident
students. There has been a larger attendance of resident students
than in any previous year. There were 203 students in residence
at the beginning of the year with a long waiting list, and more
than a hundred applications had to be declined on account of
lack of room.
The geographical distribution of the students is much as here-
tofore. The resident students represent 15 states and 20 dioceses.
75% (156) of them are from the Carolinas; and 97% (205)
are from the Southern States. The diocese of North Carolina
has had 62 girls in attencjance; East Carolina 54; Asheville 15;
South Carolina 25; the Virginia dioceses 15; the Florida dioceses
13; Georgia 7; Maryland 7. The district of Columbia,' Alabama, Ken-
tucky, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, New Mexico,
and Mexico are also represented.
In Church affiliation 70% (146) of the resident students are
Episcopalians. There are 28 Methodists; 18 Presbyterians; 14 Bap-
tists; and 6 of other denominations.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
Jos. Blouxt Cheshire.

of St. Mary's School.

28 JouKXAL OF Proceedings
Kev. Edwin A. Peuick, Jr., read tlie report of the Board
of Managers of the Thompson Orphanage and Training In-
stitution as follows :
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS OF THE THOMPSON ORPHAXAOE
AND TRAINING INSTITUTION
I. Financial
(a) C2irrent Fund:
During the past year the Orphanage has received strong
financial support from the Church. The Treasurer's books were
closed on December 31st, 1920, with a cash balance of $7,714.61
in the bank; bills receivable by the Current Fund in the sum
of $1,950.00, making total assets of $9,664.61, with all obligations
paid in full. This substantial balance is remarkable in view
of the fact that the Current Fund was used during the year
to pay for repairs and permanent improvements amounting in
all to $2,550.00.
The present financial health of the Orphanage is due in
large measure to the amount and the regularity of the income
derived from the Nation-Wide Campaign. The Diocese of North
Carolina contributed through this" fund $12,584.10, and the
Diocese of East Carolina $2,576.06. The District of Asheville
Asheville contributed its Thanksgiving Offering and made
other donations.
(b) Encloioment and Building Funds:
The total amount of securities held for the Endowment and
Building Funds of the Orphanage on April 15th, 1921, was
$30,935.65. Of this sum $10,926.65 belongs to the Edwin
A. Osborne Building Fund.
The Endowment and Building Funds do not include $10,000.00
in securities given to the Orphanage under the will of Mrs.
Sadie Tucker Williamson. It was requested of the Executive
Committee by Mr. Williamson, that he be furnished with a
suggestion for a memorial building for which the Orphanage
is now in special need. In response to this request, the Execu-
tive Committee has submitted to Mr. Williamson a preliminary
draft of plans for an infirmary, which he now has under
consideration.
II. Personnel
(a) Officers:
The office of Superintendent was made vacant by the action
of the Board of Managers on April 19th, 1921, whereby the
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921
29
Rev. Walter J. Smith was retired as superintendent emeritus,
on a pension of $900.00 from the Orphanage.
It was further decided that a clergyman be secured as his
successor to the office of superintendent, and the Executive
Committee was authorized to find and employ a man for this
position.
Mr J H. Cutter resigned as Treasurer of the Permanent Fund
during the year, and Mr. F. 0. Clarkson was chosen in his place.
The staff of workers at the Orphanage has remained un-

(b) Pupils:
There are at present eighty children at the Orphanage,

and 15 were discharged.
III. Health
The condition of the children's health has been carefully
supervised by Dr. Wingate and Dr. Tucker, assisted by other
physicians and dentists of the city of Charlotte. Five major
operations and twenty-two minor operations have been per-
formed. At two different times the children were confined by
epidemics of measles and whooping cough. One girl has spent
about nine months at the State Sanitarium for Tuberculosis,
in Hoke County. The rule agc«ist admitting any tubercularly
affected child is being stringently enforced.

REPORT OF FIXAXCE COMMITTEE OF 3^ATI0X-WI»E CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE
Our most efficient Treasurer, Mr. J. Renwick Wilkes, has sub-
mitted to the Convention a full printed report of the receipts for
1920. We desire to offer the following summary:
Apportioned for Nation-Wide Campaign for 1920. .$89,265.00
Pledged for Nation-Wide Campaign for 1920 94.773.59
Amt. paid on Nation-Wide Campaign pledges, 1920. 84,108.97
While this report shows that the Diocese paid $5,157.03 less
than the apportionment, we are glad to report that we overpaid
our apportionment to the General Church, $154.57, placing our
diocese among the eight dioceses which paid 100 percent of the
1920 quota, and making us the only diocese in the Province of
Sewanee that overpaid our general apportionment and placing us
with East Carolina as the only two in the Province that reached
the quota.
We overpaid our apportionment to the Thomp'^on Orphanage
and the University of North Carolina. We came within a few
dollars of reaching the requested needs for the Raleigh Convocation
and for the work of Religious Education and Social Service.
The Convocation of Charlotte had asked for $17,000.00, but we
have received for this work $11,046.20, but as this amount is four
times greater than the receipts for 1919, we feel that great success
has resulted from the campaign for this missionary field.
We desire to express our gratitude and appreciation to Mr. J.
Renwick Wilkes for his untiring labor as our Treasurer. We feel
sure that his systematic and business-like methods in this work have
been a great factor in the fine results that have been accomplished,
and we also desire to express our appreciation to the many church
treasurers who have responded so willingly and regularly to Mr,
Wilkes' reminders.
As you will note in the Treasurer's tabulated report. 55 Churches
overpaid their apportionment, 15 paid in full, 3 missions not ap-
portioned made contributions, and of the 30 which did not reach
the goal, only two have made no gift to the Nation-Wide Campaign.
We also beg to submit the following report of the apportion-
ments and pledges for 1921.
Diocese of ^orth Carolixa, 1921 35
The Diocesan Committee took into consideration conditions ex-
isting in several churches and at suggestion of Finance Committee
reduced the apportionments against thirteen Churches a total of
$5350.00. Therefore, as we had promised that the apportionments
against the Churches would not be increased for three years, we
were compelled to mak a total apportionment for 1921 of over
$5000 less than 1920, or a total apportionment of $83,520.00, and
so far with seven Churches not reported, we have pledged $81,763.00,
or $1,766.00 below our goal for 1921.
We desire to report that by action of the Executive Committee
$2000.00 was borrowed for the 1920 Campaign work. Of this
$1930.02 was used and it was necessary to pay this loan before making
any other division of the funds, and therefore an amount was
apportioned to each Church for that purpose and this amount was
deducted by the Missionary Treasurer from each Church's payments
before any other division was made. A full and detailed statement
of the expenditure of this $1930.02 was published in the January
issue of the Carolina Churchman.
In 1920, $2240.00 was apportioned for Diocesan and Provincial
Religious Education and Social Service, but the $2000.00 apportioned
for provincial expense was not needed, as this work was under-
taken by the General Church. The Diocesan Nation-Wide Cam-
paign Committee at its September meeting made an additional
appropriation of $750.00 for the Diocesan Board of Religious Edu-
cation and of $250.00 for the Diocesan Board of- Social Service.
There is still in the Treasurer's hands as of December 31, 1920,
$818.09, and therefore, the Committee made no apportionment for
this work in 1921.
We are glad to report that of the 103 Churches against which
an apportionment was made for 1921, 25 have pledged over-sub-
scriptions, 54 have pledged full payment of their apportionment,
and only 17 have not been able to pledge the full amount asked
of them. We have not yet heard from the 7 following Churches:
St. John's, Battleboro; St. Alban's, Littleton; St. Stephen's, Oxford;
St. Jude's, Spring Hope; St. Timothy's, Union County; St. An-
drew's, Rockingham County; and St. Cyprian's, Oxford. We are
glad to report that five of these Churches have contributed already
in 1921, although reports have not yet been received.
In conclusion, we urge each church to make an earnest effort
to do its full share and to make prompt monthly payments to our
Diocesan Treasurer.
We have had the Treasurer's books audited and we submit
36 JouRXAL OF Proceedixgs
the Auditor's full report as finding all accounts correct and books
carefully kept.
Respectfully submitted,
John L. Jackson, Chairman

REPORT OF ST. AUGUSTINF/S SCHOOL, INCLUDING ST. AGNES HOSPITAL
St Augustine's is completing its fifty-fourth year. There have
been enroljed during the year four hundred and eighty-eight (488)
students, including thirty-four (34) in the Training School for
Nurses at St. Agnes Hospital.
The students will have paid over $21,000 toward their board
and tuition. Thanks to the increased resources o^the American
Church Institute for Negroes, as a result of the Nation-Wide Cam-
paign and to the additional revenue from the students payments,
42 JouRXAL OF Pkoceedixgs
the finances of the School are in better shape than they have been
for several years past.
The Academic and Vocational work of the School is becoming
more and more standardized. The graduates from our Normal
Course receive State Teachers' Certificates without further exami-
nations. Work is progressing on our Model Farm which we hope
to make an important feature of the School. A number of our
young men are looking forward to entering the ministry.
In addition to its regular work the School carries on religious
and Social Service work for the people of the neighborhood.
Monthly Conferences, Mothers' Meetings, etc., are held on the
grounds. Young men from the School conduct religious Services in
the neighborhood. In addition twenty-seven have been baptized in
the School Chapel, and there have been twelve confirmed.
There is a pressing need for an Administration and Class Room
Building to release space needed for living quarters for the boys
and young men.
During June a Conference is to be held on the School Grounds
for colored church workers for this province, and there is also
to be a large gathering of student members of the colored Young
Women's Christian Association.
Dr. Mary V, Glenton, Superintendent of St. Agnes Hospital, re-
ports that, up to May 1st, the hospital had admitted nine hundred
(900) patients; there had been five hundred and forty (540) opera-
tions and 14,310 hospital days.
The expenditures have been about $25,000.00 of which amount
over $15,000 has been paid by the patients.
The Hospital and the Nurses' Home are badly in need of repairs,
enlargement, and endowment. It is hoped that an adequate sum for
these purposes will be raised in the near future.
During the past year we have missed from their home on the
School grounds. Dr. A. B. Hunter, Honorary Principal, and Mrs.
A. B. Hunter, Honorary Superintendent of St. Agnes Hospital. Dr.
and Mrs. Hunter are in Florence, Italy, where Dr. Hunter is in
charge of the American Church.

Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 43

portioned to this Diocese.
On motion of Eev. Francis ^I. Osborne, the question of
the current support of the University of the South was referred
to the Xation-Wide Campaign Committee.
Mr. Kalph B. Coit read the report of the Church Pension
Fund Committee, which was referred to the Committee
on the State of the Church, as follows :
CHURCH PE^'SIO^^ FUND COMMITTEE'S ANNUAL REPORT TO
DIOCESAN CONVENTION.
At the request of ihe Chairman, I take pleasure in presenting
a report for your Church Pension Fund Committee for the past year.
In collecting the assessments, your committee handles accounts
with sixty-eight (68) different parishes and with three (3) Convoca-
tions. While assessment notices are sent out by the New York
Office quarterly, a number of the Parishes pay their assessments
monthly, so that there is considerable detail connected with the
handling of these accounts.
Your Committee has made every effort during the past year,
not only to collect all assessments due for the year 1920, but also
to collect arrears on accounts unpaid January 1, 1920. According
to my records all accounts for the year 1920 of the sixty-eight (68)
parishes were paid in full except four (4). The arrears and interest
of these four accounts amounting to only $107.77. One Convocation
is also in arrears, the amount being $100.26. A detailed statement
of the Parishes and Convocation in arrears is attached to this report.
Exhibit A.
During the year 1920, your Committee secured from the Now
York Office a complete statement of all Parishes in arrears on
January 1, 1920, dating the beginning of the Church Pension Fund,
and permission to collect these accounts, provided interest was col-
lected at the rate of 89r. The statement showed nineteen (19)
Parishes and one Convocation in arrears, amounting with interest
to $1,337.62. Your Committee has collected nine of these accounts,
reducing the arrears to $772.52. A statement of the Convocation
and Parishes in arrears for accounts due prior to January 1, 1920,
is attached to this report. Exhibit B.
Under date of December 31, 1920, in writing to the Secie'.ary
of the Church Pension Fund, I made inquiry as to the last date
upon which the Pension Fund would accept 1920 assessments. I de-
44 JouRXAL OF Proceedixgs
sire to quote the following from Mr. Sayre's letter in reply:
"In answer to your inquiry as to the last date on
which we can receive 1920 assessments I would say that
up to this time the Trustees, except in cases where it is
manifestly not proper to give further extension of time,
have in each case presented to them waived the rule in
regard to the receipt of 1917, 1918, and 1919 assessments
and allowed them to be received after March 1st. I think
that they will do the same in regard to 1920 assessments.
But I am also of the opinion that, from discussions in the
Board, they will think that after four years parishes
should be habituated to a reasonably prompt payment of
pension assessments and that they will pass a general
resolution that, in regard to 1921 assessments, the rule
will be enforced. That is, I think that you can send to
us at any time assessments due not later than December
31, 1920, with the appropriate interest, and I can practically
guarantee that they will be accepted, but that next year
the Trustees will see that the rule is strictly enforced.
I will be glad to inform you concerning any action which
the Trustees may take.
"May I add that we appreciate your vigorous coopera-
tion in getting in the back assessments in the Diocese of
North Carolina. I think that it is wise to have allowed
leeway during the early years of the Fund, and I think
that you will probably also agree that hereafter this
should not be necessary and would not be for the good
of the Church."
Your Committee has been pleased to note the large number
of Parishes w^hich have increased the stipends of their rectors
during the past year. An increase in the rector's salary means
an increased interest in the Pension Fund and greater protection
for his wife and family.
Your Committee also wishes to express it.-3 appreciation of the
splendid cooperation it has received from all of the Parishes during
the past year.

Resolved, that the Diocesan Board of Religious Education and
Social Service, and the Committee on the Nation-Wide Campaign
shall each consist of three members appointed by the Bishop, with
authority to call in the assistance of others. Clergymen, Laymen
or Laywomen.
Rev. Robert E. Roe read the report of the Board of
Religious Education as follows:
The General Board of Religious Education has been at work
for some time trying to formulate a programme that may be gen-
erally adopted by the various Dioceses as an authoritative basis
of work. In a tentative form this programme was sent last Feb-
48 JouEXAL OF Proceedings
ruary to the Rectors of Parishes throughout the Church. A meet-
ing is called for May 18th in Pittsburgh, when final action is to
be made. When Diocesan Boards have this complete programme
they will be in better position to give help to the various parish
schools.
To secure best results with this programme, the General
Board is anxious to have a complete survey of all the Schools
throughout the Church. In line with this, your Diocesan Board is
now securing a report from every School in this Diocese. It was
hoped that this might be done in time to give this Convention a
picture of our Sunday School work in the Diocese. Returns have
not made this possible; but, when it is secured, it will be of
great help to our work.
It is a feature of the general programme that an Educational
Committee be appointed by the Rector in every Parish and Mis-
sion. It seems to your Board that this is the best means of pro-
moting this important w^ork. Such a committee could study its
own local needs and on the basis of this study confer with the
Board wherever it seemed the Board could help. It would be
such a real help to the Board to have such a committee in every
Parish, that your board asks that consideration be given this request.
The Board has held such meetings as were necessary. At the
Convocation of Charlotte the Chairman of the Board held a con-
ference on the proposed programme; at the Convocation of Raleigh,
the Rev. Warren W. Way held a similar conference. Miss Mabel
Lee Cooper has also held conferences for the Board at various
places in the Diocese.
The Board is giving what cooperation it can to those in
charge of St. Mary's Conference. The work on Schools and Teach-
ing at the Conference is going to be well worth while and it is
hoped that a fine attendance may make possible to the Diocese
fine results.
By cooperation between this Board and the Board of Religious
Education of East Carolina, a course" of lectures on "The Funda-
mentals of the Faith" was delivered at the University of North
Carolina by the Rev. Dr. George Craig Stewart of Evanston, 111.
As has already been said, the Junior Auxiliary, now called
the Church School Service League, has been placed under the
direction of the Diocesan Board of Religious Education. This has
taken more time than any other feature of our work; but the need
of getting this work started has seemed to justify special importance
being given it. The various departments have been organized,
officers elected, and considerable headway made in changing to the
new order. A special report of this work, prepared by Mrs. H. M.
Bonner, President of the League, will be appended to, and made
a part of this report.
We have been greatly helped in our work by a grant of $750
Diocese of North Carolina, 19^21 49
from the Finance Committee of the Nation-Wide Campaign. With-
out this we could not have done much that has been done. Our

REPORT OF CHURCH SCHOOL SERVICE LEAGUE
As the Junior Auxiliary by direction of the Presiding Bishop
and Council had been placed under the direction of the Board of
Religious Education, the Woman's Auxiliary of this Diocese, at its
meeting in Oxford made formal transfer of this work to the
Diocesan Board.
The League held its organization meeting in Raleigh at the
time of St. Mary's Conference, the following officers being chosen
with the Bishop's approval:
Mrs. H. M. Bonner, President,
Mrs. Warren W. Way. Vice-President,
Miss Sarah F. Cheshire, Secretary,
Mrs. Gilbert Hay, Secretary for Box Work.
Mr. Hamilton C. Jones, Treasurer,
Mrs. F. S. Spruill, Secretary Little Helpers,
Mr. H, M. Weathers, Treasurer Thank Offering.
With this action the Junior Auxiliary officially ceased to exist;
however, the Board will have under its care every branch of the
Junior Auxiliary until all branches are merged into the Church
50 JouKXAL OF Proceedings
School Service League. In this new step forward, it should be
noted that the Little Helpers and the Font Roll have combined;
together, they form "The Little Helpers Department of the Church
School."
The work of the League is divided into five fields of service —
The Parish, the Community, the Diocese, the Nation, and the
World, with the five-fold objects of Prayer, Study, Work, Gifts,
and Fellowship.
In addition to visits to Parishes and many letters, a copy of the
Plan of Organization was sent to every Rector of a Parish, and
articles bearing upon this work have been printed in the Carolina
Churchman.
A survey for the year shows:
Number of Parish Leagues organized 10
Little Helpers (already existing) 35
Juniors (still active) 4
Total 49
Leaders 47
Members 600
Contributions: (Five Fields of Service.)

Your Committee have heard with pleasure the report of the
Board of Managers of the Thompson Orphanage and Training
Institution. The Committee makes no recommendations. How-
ever, we wish to make special note of the increased support of
the Orphanage through the Nation-Wide Campaign, showing a
cash balance of $7,714.61.
The Committee would also express the greatest appreciation
for the generous gift to the Orphanage under the will of Mrs.
Sarah Tucker Williamson, and also to the friends who con-
tributed so generously at the last Convention to the Edwin A.
Osborne Memorial Building.
The Committee desires to pay heart-felt tribute to the work
of the Rev. Walter J. Smith, now retiring from active super-
intendency of the Orphanage after twenty-three years of active
service and highest devotion on the part of both himself and family.
With the limited means which the Church has in the
past placed at his disposal, few men could have accomplished
what he did. We rejoice with him in the high state of efficiency
to which, under God, the Orphanage has been brought and for
the place which it now holds in the hearts of our people.
Rev. Walter J. Smith spoke on the work of the Orphanage.
Rev. Warren W. Way offered the following resolution

Resolved, that the Assessment upon St. Matthew's, Rowan
County, be made $6.00 for the year; and that Assessment upon
St. Jude's, Rowan County, be made $3.00.
Whereas, the assessment upon the Chapel of the Cross,
Chapel Hill, for the E. & C. Fund w-as made this year upon
the basis of the total salary paid the Rector, and not upon
that part of said salary paid by the Chapel of the Cross.
Resolved, That the assessment for this year be reduced from
$280.00 to $155.00
While speaking of the work at Chapel Hill, your Committee
are of the opinion that the salary of the Rector, or any part
thereof does not properly come within the province of the
E. & C. Fund. At the Convention of 1920 a resolution w^as passed
(see page 53 of the Journal) requiring that $1,000.00 be paid out
of the Nation-Wide Campaign Treasury as our annual appro-
priation to Chapel Hill. The resolution further said, "But, if
there should not be sufficient money available in this fund, the
Finance Committee of the Diocese is instructed to provide for
the deficiency." Obviously, the first thought of the Church is
that the work at Chapel Hill should be provided for out of the
funds of the N. W. C. Under the resolution just referred to, the
Treasurer of the Diocese has paid from the E. & C. Fund to
Chapel Hill during the year 1920, $360.00. We are glad to know
that the Executive Committee of the N. W. C. has agreed to assume
the full obligation of the $1,000.00 and the Pension Fund Premium
upon same for the year 1921.
Resolved, that the Diocesan N. W. C. be instructed, when it
Diocese of :N'orth Carolina, 1921 53
plans its work for the ensuing year, to make adequate provision
for the payment of the full Diocesan appropriation to the work
at Chapel Hill.
Respectfully submitted,
S. S. BosT, Chau-nian.
Mr. W. A. Avaiit read the report of the Good Samaritan
Hospital which was referred to the Committee on the State of
the Church as follows:
RErORT OF THE GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL, CHARLOTTE, -\. C.
The Board of Managers of the Good Samaritan Hospital,
Charlotte, N. C, herewith submits its annual report:
During the year the Hospital has accomondated 516 pay and
partial-pay patients for a total of 4,386 days, from whom fees
were received in the sum of 8,393.85.
The patients classified as charity, for whom no fees whatever
were received, were 216 in number. These were treated for a
total period of 1,427 days at a cost to the Hospital of $2,078.94.
The Board of Managers regards it as worthy of special note
that such a large proportion of these negro patients were able
to pay for their treatment.
It is an accepted fact that few hospitals with less than
fiftv beds can be self^maintaining. We have twenty beds and
always from twenty-five to twenty-eight patients. This necessarily
means a serious over-crowding, which detracts from the efficiency
of the hospital service. ^, • + .
Our greatest need at present is an annex with thirt>
additional beds.
During the year the negroes of Charlotte have raised a fund
of $1200 00 as an initial contribution towards this needed addition.
On December 5, 1920, the corner-stone was laid. We hope the
people of Charlotte and our Church in the Diocese will encourage
the colored people in this undertaking since they have sho^^'n such
a disposition to help themselves.
The following is a brief summary of the hospital ^^ork
during 1920, and its financial status at the close of the year:
747 Patients for 5,809 days
Receipts from Patients, and gifts $10,528.3o
Total expense account 10,472.79
Balance December 31st 5o.56
EndowTiient at interest $1500.00
Annex Fund at interest 3500.00

Rev. Alfred S. Lawrence read the report of tlie Com-
mittee on the state of the Church as follows :
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OX THE STATE OF THE CHURCH,
Last year the Committee on the State of the Church made
the statement thai the Convention seemed to be a sort of
high water mark in the life of the church. We are thankful
that it was not, and that this year we are able to record that
the diocese of North Carolina has taken a further step forward.
Stevenson rightly said, "To travel hopefully is a better thing
than to attain, and the true success is to labor." So, though it is
our pleasure to record some splendid attainments, we consider
that the best part of our report is the clear indication that it gives,
that our diocese is at work, that it is alive to its task, and that
it has no intention of resting on any point attained. The real
value of this brief record of what has been accomplished in the
past year is the encouragement it gives us to go forward.
Last year we were able to report that the Nation-Wide Cam-
paign Pledge had been made in full. Now we can report that
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 57
it has been paid in full, and that there is every possibility
that it will be paid in full again this year, and this in spite of
serious industrial and agricultural depression. Many of our
people have come to realize the importance of the church's
work, and so have given. Others have given simply because they
were asked to do so, and as churchmen felt that they must
do so, but as a result of their giving they have become interested.
There is no question that the interest of our people in the
church's work, whether in the diocese or in far away foreign
fields, is greater than it ever was, and better than that, it is a
growing interest.
As regards the statistics of the diocese a rather remarkable
thing has happened. We hope it will never be remarkable again, but
it is unprecedented to date. Every parish and Mission has
made its report to the Secretary of the Convention. Note it well.
It means that for the first time in history every Parish and
Mission has answered "here" when the secretary called the roll.
The summary of these reports shows an increase in everything
except burials; that is the only decrease. The most encouraging
increase is that in Sunday School pupils and teachers, an increase
of 100 in officers and teachers, and of nearly 600 in pupils.
This is a healthy growth, and w^e trust that next year will show
a yet larger gain in this field.
We are all familiar with the vast increase in offerings
brought about by the Nation-Wide Campaign, so there is no need
to comment on what is perfectly well known. But what is not
so well known is the large increase in ministers' salaries. This
increase over last year is 28%.
The reports of the church institutions are excellent. The
orphanage is in the best condition it has ever knov/n. During
the past year one building was erected and the ground has been
broken for the Edwin A. Osborne cottage. With the support that
is now assured it, the orphanage stands w^ell equipped to do its work.
St. Marys School continues to be crowded to capacity with
a long waiting list. Its work is too well known to need comment.
We regret that the Endo^^^nent Fund is not yet completed, but
trust ihat next Convention will see this matter successfully
concluded.
The Woman's Auxiliary has made important changes. At a
note-worthy gathering in Winston-Salem last month, it adopted
a constitution, elected a president, and re-organized its plan of-
work, looking on the one hand to centralization and on the other
hand to broader fields of service.
We note with gratitude the reports of the Archdeacons,
showing that almost every Parish and Mission of the diocese is
filled or about to be filled. This condition enables the Arch-
58 JouKXAL OF Pkoceedi:n^gs
deacons to do their more important work, the opening up of new-
fields and the strengthening of the weak ones.
St. Augustine's Schools and the colored hospitals show
excellent work and fairly good support. But we have one most
distressing thing to record; the colored convocation has had no
proper support. In spite of the Nation-Wide Campaign, in fact
really because of it, the colored convocation has received less
support than it received two years ago. It has come about in
this way. When the diocesan budget was made up, the two white
convocations were provided for by the diocese, but acting on the
advice of the central office in New York, the care of the colored
convocation was left to the general church. Because the majority
of the dioceses of the church failed to attain the financial success
desired, the amount that can be spared for the colored work of
our convocation is little more than one-quarter of what was
counted on. Last year's report on the state of the ch'urch called
attention to this fact, already manifest then. A resolution on
the subject was made, but nothing was done. The colored clergy
and teachers cannot live on resolutions.
It is not the function of this committee to do more than to
record the state of the church. But we trust that this Convention
may find time to act in such a way that relief may be accorded
immediately to Bishop Delany and his faithful band of clergy
and teachers. We are confident that this accidental neglect can
be and will be quickly remedied. It is the only exception, though
we grant it is a serious exception, to the record of achievements.
We should like to commend the work of the Board of Religious
Education. Its report shows constructive work and a widespread
influence.
The Carolina Churchman is increasing its usefulness. Wherever
one finds a man or woman well informed in the work of the
diocese, there one always finds a reader of the Carolina
Churchman. The editor deserves the thanks of the diocese for his
labors in making this paper a very real asset to the life of
the church.
There are many other phases of church life in the diocese
that we should like to comment on, but to do so would make
this report unnecessarily long. The unique work among the deaf
mutes deserves mention, however. Few of us can appreciate how
much it means to the deaf to have one of their number to come
among them to preach the Word in the language they understand,
to baptize and teach their children, and to minister in every
way to their spiritual needs. It is a work of which the diocese
may be justly proud.
But after all, this report has only one purpose, namely, to
record a step forward in the life of the church in North Carolina.
With grateful and humble hearts we are able to record that that step
Diocese of ^orth Carolina, 1921 59
has been taken, and that having taken it we are all the more ready
to go on. We can record only material progress, but such progress
is an indication 'that behind and Underneath it is a spiritual
progress. It is an increasing love of God and of our fellowman
that has made the past year such a splendid record of achievement.
In spite of the manifest difficulties and discouragements of this
reconstruction period the diocese is of one heart and one mind —
to make real as far as in us lies tho prayer we pray daily,
"Thy Kingdom come."

Alfred S. Lawrence,
For the Committee.

reports of the several sessions of the convention.
Rev. Francis M. Osborne offered the following resolution
which was adopted:
60 JOURXAL OF PrOCEEDIXGS
Whereas the Church of Jesus Christ prays for peace and
earnestly hopes for that day to come when war shall cease in all
the world.
And whereas the building of great national armaments may
be a menace to the peace through encouragement of pride and
trust in worldly strength and material might.
And whereas the Christian people of this nation are now
called upon and desire to use the material resources with which
God has blessed our land for the crying needs of the suffering
and distracted world, which resources are wasted and exhausted
by the expense of unlimited armament.
Be it therefore resolved that w^e petition Congress to support
plans for an International Conference on disarmament.
On motion of Mr. Thomas H. Webb a committee was
appointed to prepare a suitable minute in memory of Mr.
D. Y. Cooper.
The Bishop appointed this Committee as follows; —
Rev. Isaac W. Hughes
Dr. R. H. Lewis Col. Charles E. Johnson

APPENDIX A
ADDRESS OF THE BISHOP
ADDRESS OF THE BISHOP
Brethren of the Clergy and Levity:
By the goodness of God we again meet in annual Convention,
the one hundred and fifth in the history of the Diocese, and
thank God, and take courage. May He so guide and govern us
in our work, by the mighty power of the Holy Ghost, that by
mutual counsel, sympathy and love we may provide wisely for
the affairs of His Kingdom, and be enabled bravely and faith-
fully to carry out the policies upon which we shall agree.
During the year 1920, covered by this address, we have lost
from our ranks in the Diocese two of our brethern of the
Clergy, the Rev. Simeon J. M. Bro^vn who died March 31st,
and the Rev. Charles Henry Male, who died September 16th.
Of IjlLv. Brown I spoke in my address to the Convention of
19^6. Of the Rev. Mr. Male there is only a short story to be
■^told. He was a native of one of the British West India Islands,
the Island of St. Christopher, or St. Kits, as commonly called,
and came to the United States to complete his education at
Lincoln University, Chester County, Pa., a large colored insti-
tution, from which he was graduated. Feeling an urgent call
to devote himself to the ministry of the Church, in which he
had been brought up in his native island, and finding no open-
ing for work in the ^orth, he came to this Diocese in the year
1903*, with a letter of transfer from the Bishop of Pennsylvania,
under whom he had become a candidate, and was ordained by
me to the Dioconate in February, 1904, and advanced to the
priesthood a year and a half later. The whole of his ministry
was spent in charge of St. Cyprian's Church, Oxford, and the
country mission of St. Simeon's, Satterwhite. He was an earn-
est, faithful, and godly man, -devoted to the Church, and
patient and gentle under the discouragements of his work. He
had been in poor health for some time, but to me his death
was unexpected. He was always loyal and loving to his Bishop,
and I desire to put on record this expression of my confidence
and sincere regard.
It is not possible that I should in these annual addresses com-
memorate all the faithful men and women, who year by year
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 63
pass on to their rest, but some cases it would seem wrong to
leave unnoted. During the past year, 1920, the Diocese suf-
fered an all but irreparable loss in the death of the President
of our Diocesan Women's Auxiliary, Mrs. Mary McBee Hoke,
wife of the lion. Wm. Alex. Hoke. It was with some difficulty
that she was persuaded to undertake so important aiul respon-
sible a position. Her gentle and modest nature made her feel
herself unequal to the task. But during her short service, of
little more than Uvo years, she developed very remarkable in-
fluence and efficiency in leading the women of the Diocese,
especially in the devotional work of the Auxiliary. Probably
she was but little conscious of how deeply she touched the
hearts of those who came in contact with her. She was truly
an inspiring and stimulating leader, and admirably qualified
to appreciate the crisis in our Church and Auxiliary life, which
concluded mth her brief term of office. First in the Pilgrimage
of Prayer, and afterwards in the very vital part borne by the
Woman's Auxiliary in the Xation-wide campaign, Mrs. Hoke
quietly and unobstrusively, but strongly, and with a true in-
stinct for aggressive leadership, drew to her side those best
qualified for true service, and kept the women of the Diocese
well in the lead, both in spiritual fervor and in national work,
of the great movement which did so much for the Church and
the Diocese in 1919 and 1920. She "fell upon the field," so to
speak, having presided at a sectional meeting of the Auxiliary
within twenty-four hours of her death.

It appears from the foregoing that during the year I officiated

advanced 2 deacons to the priesthood; baptized 1 adult and 3 in-
fants; officiated at 1 marriage and 3 funerals; and confirmed 485
persons. Adding the sixty-three confirmations reported by Bishop
Delany, makes the total number of confirmations for the year 548.
Bishop Delany also ordained one of our colored deacons to the
priesthood, making a total of ordinations 3.
These ordinations sliould here be recorded with more detail,
as follows :
May 30th, being Trixity Sunday, in St. Luke's Church, Salisbury,
I ordained to the priesthood the Rev. Jacob Frederick Burg. The
candidate was presented by the Rev. Edwin A. Osborne, the sermon
was preached by the Rev. Bertram E. Brown. There were present

E. King, and the Rev. Roger E. Bunn, Presbyters, were all taking
part in the service. All the Presbyters united with Bishop Delany
in the Imposition of Hands.
This address covers only the year 1920, but it seems neces-
sary, in giving the names of the clergy received, and of those
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 73
lost by death or removal, that I should bring the record up to
the first of the month in which we meet, in order that the Con-
vention may understand the present condition of the Diocese.
Since my address to the last Convention we have lost :
By death:
1. The Rev. Charles Henry Male, died September 16, 1920.
By letters dismissory:

10, 1920.
6. Rev. Basil M. Walton, to Asheville, February 1, 1921.
7. Rev. Clement Grenelle Bradley, to Washington, March 19, 1921.

In. considering the work of the Diocese at the present time,
the outstanding feature of the situation, in whatever way we
look at it, is the ^N'ation-wide Campaign. Certainly no move-
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921
75
me.nt in the Cliureli ever grew out of a wider vision of our
dutv and our opportunity. And in those Dioceses which m
anv degree rose to their responsibility, no movement ever accom-
plished so much, or came so near realizing its purpose or eifect-
ing its design in so brief a period. That the movement, as
projected bv those who were responsible for it, Avas practicable
is demonstrated by the fact that in a number of Dioceses, and
those bv no means the strongest either in money or m men,
perfect ^success was attained, just as had been planned, by fol-
lowing the methods recommended for our guidance. That the
scheme, as proposed by its originators, was practical, and calcu-
lated to produce amazing results for good, is proved by the
experience of those Dioceses which carried the work through
to success. Xot only have those Dioceses themselves been
helped both spiritually and materially, but even by the very
limited success which was attained throughout the Church at
large the whole general work of the Church, domestic and
foreign has been lifted out of a slough of despond and put
upon a'new level of hope and efficiency. Had all the Dioceses
responded lovally and generously to the leadership of those
whom the Church put in charge of this great movement, and
made a sincere effort to do what they were asked to do the
predictions of its most enthusiastic advocates Avould have been
abundantly fulfilled.
But the stubborn fact confronts us, that, as a whole, the
Church throughout the United States did not carry out the pro-
posed scheme, and the nation-wide campaign, as nation-wide,
failed. I am not saying this in idle retrospect, not in useless
criticism I am calling attention to an actual situation, and a
very serious question of duty arising out of the situation. In
the Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, and :^orth Carolina
Dioceses, as a whole, success was attained. This Diocese was
given a quota of forty-two thousand dollars. It accepted that
qicota, subscribed it, and paid it in full. For the current year,
1921, we are endeavoring to do the same, ^^ow this quota was
based in part upon Diocesan Survey of the needs and oppor-
tunities of Church work in the Dioceses, as well as upon the
general work of the Church in Domestic and Foreign Missions,
and in Central Administration. We anticipated certain help
76 Address of the Bishop
in imjoortant enterprises in this Diocese from the general
treasury into which our quota of fortv-two thousand dollars
was paid. And our work in this Diocese has been to a certain
extent crippled by the failure of the nation-wide campaign in so
large a proportion of the Dioceses. That is the situation, and it
may just as well be frankly stated and fairly faced. The ques-
tion is, What shall we do under these circumstances ?
I have tried to consider this question, not from a financial
and selfish point of view, which is unquestionably its first and
most obvious aspect, but from the point of view of our Chris-
tian responsibility, as a question of spiritual economics rather
than secular. Looking at the matter from a practical — i. e.,
a worldly and selfish — standpoint, we are disposed to say that
as our quota was to include certain provisions for our diocesan
work, and we find that, on account of the failure of other Dio-
ceses, we are not receiving what we had a right to expect, we
may retain part of this forty-two thousand dollars for our
proper church work in the Diocese. I think, on purely legal
and worldly principles, no one could deny our right to do this.
That is the way in which the matter at first presented itself
to the practical and legal side of my mind, so to speak. But in
administering the affairs of this Diocese as your Bishop I have
always endeavored to avoid the merely legal and secular view
of our responsibilities. The Spirit of Christ must govern even
our fiscal policy and measures. The nationwide campaign is,
first of all, an appeal to the Christian Conscience to realize
the obligation of the Gospel in its highest and most unselfish
demand; to do our duty by the whole Body of Christ; to give
as we are able into the treasury of God for the ivhole ivorJc of
the Church. Eventually this abundance will flow back to us;
but it is for the ivhole that we pray and that we give; not for
our own part of the work. We have caught the vision. In
some measure, but, after all, most inadequately, we have re-
sponded to the call. Others have not yet seen it. The call came
first to us. They have not yet fully heard it. It is impossible
that such a great Avork, such an unprecedented appeal, should
at once be fully appreciated by all. It must take time to arouse
the whole Church to such a wide view and to such a large
demand. As a matter of fact, we know that in most Dioceses
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 77
the clergy and people have not yet fully appreciated the
situation. Xow, what shall those Dioceses do who have been
so blessed as to have been able to unite their people in support
of this great enterprise? Shall they stand together in unfal-
tering faith and courage until all the forces of the Church can
be rallied and brought up to the same advanced position? Or
shall they falter and fall back, and lose what they have already
won for themselves as Avell as for the Church at large?
I think there can be but one reply to this question when we
have rightly appreciated its true significance. In what we
have already gained from the Xation-wide Campaign in our own
Diocese we have j^rofited incalculably. It has vastly more than
justified itself in our own experience if we should never receive
a penny for those enterprises for which we anticipated assist-
ance. If all the Church is to be aroused to the great work, it
must be by the unselfish, self-sacrificing example of those Dio-
ceses in which the movement really began, and in which it has
attained its primary goal. We must not relax our efforts, or
suffer our interest in our local enterprises to divert our energies
or our offerings from the building up of a common sentiment in
support of the common cause throughout the Church. We are
gaining immensely every year in our diocesan work. Let us
hold up the hands of those who are endeavoring to unite the
whole Church in continued effort to attain the fulfillment of
the noble purposes with which this great movement was under-
taken.
In this same connection the Convention must consider the
question of the proposed reorganization of the Diocese, by
committing the whole administration of Diocesan affairs to the
Bishop and an Executive Council. A committee will report on
the subject, and I ask your careful consideration of the report,
especially in its financial aspect. If the necessary expense can
be provided for, the plan seems to have some advantages. One
thing only, in this connection, I must very earnestly press upon
the Convention : Whatever action may be taken, I trust that
the present administration of our diocesan missions by the
Convocations, each under its Archdeacon, may not be in any
way altered. Whether the Convocation and Archdeacon shall
be immediately responsible to the Bishop and the Convention,
78 Address of the Bishop
as at present, or to the Bishop and an Executive Council, as is
proposed, I do not believe to be a matter of very special import-
ance. I do think, however, that anv alteration in a method
which has worked so well as our present Diocesan Missionary or-
ganization is very greatly to be deprecated. The Archdeacons,
each with his Convocation behind him, not only very greatly re-
lieve the Bishop in the administration of our diocesan mission-
ary work, but in this way a degree of constant oversight, direction
and assistance is secured to the missionary clergy and to the
vacant missions and parishes that otherwise would be im-
possible. The archdeacons have also been of invaluable assist-
ance to the Bishop in rendering effective every enterprise and
policy connected with the interests and obligations of the Dio-
cese. They are not only the eyes of the Bishop in all matters
of practical work, but his feet and hands likewise in going
and in doing in all parts of the field, and in serving all local
necessities. The Bishop takes this occasion to express his very
high appreciation of their faithful and effective services, not
only to the Diocese, but to himself personally and officially, and
his gratitude for all they have done and are doing to lighten
the burden of his work and of his responsibilities.
There is one subject upon which I must touch, however in-
adequately. The Lambeth Conference of 1920 opens up so
large a field for thought, and presents so many topics of in-
terest and importance, that I hesitate to mention it, though I
feel that it cannot be wholly omitted. The kindness and
generosity of friends in the Diocese, and most of them members
of this Convention, put it in my power to attend this great
meeting of our Bishops from all parts of the world, and to
continue my stay for several weeks after its close. This was a
privilege which I very greatly appreciated; and I am quite
sure that I not only enjoyed the Conference and other experi-
ences of the trip, but that I was materially strengthened and
refreshed by it, as was also Mrs. Cheshire, who accompanied
me. I hereby make very grateful acknowledgment to the friends
whose kindness enabled us to enjoy this privilege and relaxation.
Of the Conference and its work I have spoken in many
churches of the Diocese, and I sent copies of its reports and
resolutions to many of our clergymen and laymen. This was
Diocese of ]^orth Carolixa, 1921 79
the third of these great gatherings which I have attended. They
have all been interesting. They give a measure of unity and
effectiveness to our work throughout the world, and exert a
harmonizing and unifying force, as well as a stimulating in-
fluence, whose value is perhaps greater than one realizes. But
among them all the Conference of 1920, the sixth which has
been held, stand preeminent in the number of Bishops in at-
tendance, the importance of the questions considered, and in the
momentous and uplifting character of its discussions and de-
terminations. In particular the consideration of the subjects
of "Christianity and International Relations," and of "Chris-
tian Unity," made one feel that to be a part, even a very
inconsiderable part, of such a Conference was a privilege to be
remembered among the great things of life. The closing session,
in the consideration of the Report and Resolutions on Christian
Unity, was one of the most solemn and inspiring experiences I
have ever kno^m. Seldom are such speeches heard as those of
the Bishop of Zanzibar and the Archbishop of York on that
day.
The conclusions reached by the Conference, set forth in the
published "Reports and Resolutions," and summed up in the
noble Pastoral Letter, are known to many of- you. They have
commanded universal attention and a large measure of approval
in all quarters. In the proposals put forth for an approach to
Christian unity it is generally conceded that the Conference
has made a real step forward. In my own judgment, Christian
unity will never be effected by human arrangements and con-
trivances. When we are fit for it God will bring it about in
His own way. But certainly we must strive for it and pray for
it. And, looking back to the beginning of this present move-
ment and discussion, begun when our General Convention in
1886 put forth the famous "Quadrilateral," I can see a great
change in the feeling of Christian, people generally upon the
subject of Christian unity. There is a common recognition
of its importance, even of its necessity, such as we had little
evidence of before the year 1886.
All the utterances of the Conference were striking and
weighty, and, on the whole, deserving of our gravest considera-
tion. I could not, however, help feeling at times that many of
80 Address of the Bishop
the speakers, influenced by the novel and very critical social
conditions prevailing in almost all parts of the Christian world,
were in danger of being carried away from their own principles
and convictions by their eagerness in trying to adjust them-
selves to the new situation. Many things were said in debate
clean contrary to what I believe to be the true principles of
Christian polity; and some of the reports and resolutions
seem infected with the same eager spirit of accepting new views
without always a proper consideration of our true principles.
And with this possibility of error, from which none are wholly
free, it is reassuring to remember that no National Church is
bound by the action of the Conference, however greatly we may
value the greatness of its work. The Lambeth Conference of
1920 will go down in history as the greatest of those notable
gatherings up to the present time.
So far I have said nothing of our various branches of im-
portant diocesan work, yet I must not trespass longer upon
your time. During the greater number of years since I first
addressed you as your Bishop, I have felt obliged to devote
much of my annual addresses to our institutions — St. Mary's
School, the Thompson Orphanage, our Diocesan Missions, and
other like works. These are still with us, and we must continue
to devote our prayers and our efforts to these practical church
activities. The reason I have not spoken more of them is be-
cause we have found that all those particular obligations are
included in the all-embracing work of the !N"ation-wide Cam-
paign. That Campaign, whatever its faults, defects or failures,
was a direct appeal to the Christian conscience to rise up to
the claims of Christ our Lord upon our whole life; and in this
Diocese it has certainly sent new currents of love and devotion
through the whole body, and has thereby quickened every activ-
ity, and given new force to every purpose throughout our dio-
cesan life. I believe there is not a parish or a mission which
has not felt some fresh breathing of the Spirit and found new
devotion awakened among some at least of its members. Our
lay people are more active, more devoted, and more liberal;
our clergy are better sustained in their work by the sympathy
and cooperation, as well as by the generous liberality of their
people; our Orphanage, our schools, and our hospitals, all in
Diocese of Xorth Carolina, 1921 81
their measure share in the benefits. And I believe that we have
felt this blessing here at home in our own Diocese because we
have given and prayed as never before for God's Church and
God's people beyond our own borders. "There is that scattereth,
and yet increaseth."

APPENDIX B
SECTION 2— SPECIAL REPORTS
REPORT OF THE DEAF-MUTE MISSION IN THE DIOCESE
OF NORTH CAROLINA.
To the Rt, Rev. Joseph Blouxt Cheshike, D.D., Bishop of North
Carolina : R
I respectfully submit the following as a report of my official
work covering the period from May 4, 1920, to May 10, 1921.
Sermons and addreses 87. Baptisms, Infant, 3. Candidates
presented for Confirmation, 2. Marriages, 2. Burials, 3. Offerings,
$63.75. Expenses, $28.74. Balance on hand, $35.01.
During the period mentioned above I officiated in the following
places: Durham, Raleigh, Burlington, Greensboro, Kannapolis,
Winston-Salem, Concord, Charlotte, Selma, Kenley, Princeton, at
the Deaf and Dumb School for colored people in Raleigh, and at the
Deaf and Dumb School at Morganton.
Outside St. Philip's Parish, Durham, I have preached to 392
deaf people, and otherwise ministered to them as I had opportunity.
At home, our average congregations on Sunday are about 40 deaf
people and their children. Multiplying this by 52 Sundays, it would
mean that we have had congregations aggregating more than two
thousand people. The deaf people welcome the opportunity and
privilege of hearing the Gospel preached in their own language,
and we feel encouraged by the outlook.
On behalf of the deaf people in the Diocese of North Carolina
we want to thank our Bishop, the Clergy, and all the laymen and
laywomen for their interest, sympathy, and help in this our work.
Respectfully submitted,
Roma C. Fortune,
Minister to the Deaf in the Diocese of North Carolina.

REPORT OF THE RT. REV. HENRY BEARD DELANY, D.D.,
BISHOP SUFFRAGAN FOR COLORED, DIOCESE
OF NORTH CAROLINA.
Rt. Rev. Father in God, Brethren of the Clergy and Laity:
I am especially grateful to God for health and strength to face
the duties which lie before me. as well as for the surprising evi-
dences of sympathy and approval which have followed me in my
itinerancy through the states embracing the Dioceses of North
Carolina, South Carolina, East Carolina and the Missionary District
of Asheville. I have made repeated visitations both within and
without the Dioceses in which' the Colored Work is committed to
my care; and notwithstanding the difficulties under which we have
been forced to carry on the Work of the Convocation, the results,
thus far, have exceeded our expectations. Taken collectively, I have,
in the four Dioceses, including the District of Asheville, officiated
at 137 services, delivered 117 sermons and addresses, administered
the Holy Communion 37 times, baptize 2 infants and 3 adults,
officiated at 2 funerals, married 2 couples and confirmed 196 persons.
In our own Diocese, we have confirmed 63. In South Carolina, I
confirmed 39, East Carolina 46, the District of Asheville 15, con
firmed 33 outside of these Dioceses and accepted 2 from the Roman
Communion.

The Works of the Archdeaconry, with few exceptions, are
healthy and hopeful; and our hopes for the future of the less
fortunate w^orks are quickened by the zeal, the qualications and
the character of our three candidates for Holy Orders. I believe
our missionaries to be working as earnestly as ever, though under
adverse circumstances, to promote the work now under their
charge. St. James, Pittsboro, since June, 1919, has been served by
the Rev. A. Myron Cochran, Priest in charge of St. Ambrose Church,
Raleigh. Holy Cross, Statesville, and St. Philip's, Salisbury, are
being served, acceptably, by Prof. William B. Crittenden, one of
our candidates for Holy Orders.
Feb. 29th, the second Sunday in Lent, at 11 a. m., in the Church
of the Redeemer, Greensboro, at the instance of the Bishop of the
Diocese, I ordained to the Diaconite for the Bishop of Connecticut,
Claudius Augustus Nero. The candidate was presented by the Rev.
James E. King, and the sermon preached by the Rev. Joseph H.
Hudson. The Rev. Messrs. Small and Bunn assisted in the
service. Dec. 19th, the fourth Sunday in Advent at 11 a. m., in
St. Ambrose Church, Raleigh, at the instance of the Bishop of the
Diocese, I advanced to the Priesthood the Rev. A. Myron Cochran.
The candidate was presented by the Rev. Walter J. Smith; the Rev.
Julian Clyde Perry preached the sermon and the Rev. Messrs. Bunn,
Small, and King assisted in the service and all the clergy present
united in the Imposition of Hands. I am greatly encouraged at
the prospect of renewing what was formally known to us as the
St. Augustine's Conference. Ye:irs ago we planned our conference
after the St. Mary's Conference; but were forced to give up the
project for lack of funds to meet its obligations. We are now ex-
tending invitations to a few friends in the Province of Sewanee to
join with us in the reorganization of the St. Augustine's Conference
during the first week in June at the time of the meeting, of the
St. Mary's Conference and we rejoice in the information that the
teachers and lecturers of the one will be the helpers and promoters
of the other.
On June the 20th, I instituted the Rev. Roger E. Bunn to the
Rectorate of St. Mark's Church, Wilson.

130 Report of Bishop Suffragax
From Oct. the 19tli to the 22nd I attended the Sessions of the
First Provincial Conference which convened in Calvary Church,
Charleston, and from there visited Florida where I officiated in
the Church of the Good Shepherd, Fernandina, and in St. Philip's
Church, Jacksonville, on the Twenty-first Sunday after Trinity.
The meeting of our Colored Convocation in St, Titus Church,
Durham, was interesting and well attended. The Convocation
greatly appreciated the assistance and service given it by a friend.
After a brief illness, the Rev. Charles Henry Male entered into
life Eternal on the morning of September the 16th. He was born
on the Island of St. Kitts, British West Indies. He served his
generation well and won the love and respect of all who knew
him.
On October the 31st I attended the Council of East Carolina at
Roper, X. C, On the 14th of November I preached the sermon at
the Hundredth Anniversary of the Founding of St. Philip's Church,
New York; and on the next day, left for Louisville, Ky., where I
attended the sessions of the Province of Sewanee in Christ Churcli
Cathedral. I have already informed you of the Convocation's
troubles. They are chiefly financial and I am glad they are; for
when understood, I am quite sure that they will be readily re-
moved. The workers of the Colored Convocation are indeed a
patient set of men and women; but they have been kept a little
too long on pittances for salaries: for no man in these strenuous
times through which we are passing can support a family, pay
house rent and live as a clergyman of the Church should live, on
less than $75 per month and yet there are few, if any. of our men
who are allowed that much. Our teachers of the Parochial Schools
on whom so much depends are paid considerably les than most
household servants. If we could only understand the services they
render to the church and the community these conditions would
not be allowed to stand; but we do not. The result is apparent.
Unless conditions are made better, our schools must close: one has
already done so. Our clergy will leave for other fields where they
are offered living salaries. Two of them have informed me in this
month that they are forced to do so, not from choice, but because
of necessities.
There are other things of even greater concern than salaries
that now trouble the Convocation; and the clergy is working with
me as one man to aid in lifting the burdens that at this time
press so heavily upon us all. Our peace has for some time been
disturbed by the inroads which vice and criminality are making
as they pass with little or no restraint through the land. In the
light of Christian training which you have unselfishly bestowed,
do we plead for a place in the forefront of the Church's Battle
Line: not alone that we might war with you against the incoming
tide of evils, which daily shock our sensibilities; but that we
might fight them for you. We believe that the united voice of
the church has been silent too long, or too feebly raised i-gainsL

impending evils. The State of Georgia, God bless her, has said
as never before that righteousness and justice must supplant vice
and crime, and after all this is but emphasizing the edict of the
LfOwly Nazarine. If the State of Georgia has cast the challenge
the Church through the voice of her Bishop has certainly accepted
it, and pledged their support of his position as outlined, even re-
questing that it be read from every pulpit.

REPORT OF ARCHDEACON OF RALEIGH
Rt. Rev. Joseph B. Cheshire, D.D.
Rev. Father in God:
From January 1st, 1920 to January 1st, 1921, I made 107 visits
to points within the Convocation; held, in part or whole, 103
services, travelled 9,364 miles, had six baptisms, presented four
persons for confirmation, had one marriage and three funerals. I
attended two conferences of the Inter-Church World Movement, a
meeting of the Southern Socialogical Congress meeting in
Washington, D. C, and the Provincial Synod meeting in Louisville,
Ky. My expenses for the year were $453.68.
Offerings at services held by me amounted to $150.00 up to
Oct. 1st, 1920. From that date on my offerings were applied to
special purposes and are reported in my Archdeacon's Fund.
I have in hand the following funds:
$401.00 for Chapel at Wendell, $11.88 for Font at Wendell.
For the Archdeacon's Fund I have received from all sources
$644.30, and have disbursed $586.84.
At the meeting of Convocation in Tarboro a committee of
three persons was named to co-operate with the Bishop and Arch-
deacon in the matter of building Chapels at strategic points within
the Convocation. This committee is seeking to enroll three
thousand members throughout the Convocation, at a minimum
membership fee of one dollar per call, not more than two calls
to be made in any one year. There are several points where we
ought to begin the erection of Chapels such as Dunn, Nashville,
Wendell, and Roxboro.
During the past year . three new men have come into the
Convocation.
'ihe Rev. Cortez R. Cody is now in charge of the important
work at Duke, and is opening up new work at Dunn. His ability
and enthusiasm are already showing results, and the prospects
aie most encouraging.
Rev. John R. Crosby has accepted a call to the Towncsville field,
which is our most important country work. I have received fine
reports of his labors.
Rev. Boston M. Lackey has come to Raleigh as ascistant to
the Rev. Milton A. Barber, and by an arrangement with Mr. Barber
Mr. Lackey gives one fourth of his time to work under the direction
of the Archdeacon.
The Archdeacon is able to report that for the first
time in many years every field in the Convocation is occupied,
and the Archdeacon is now giving his time to the smaller places
Diocese of I^orth Carolina, 1921 133
and to the isolated communicants of the Church. At Tillery
we have resumed services with good congregations. At Elm City
we have again started services, and have done considerable re-
pairing on the Church building.
I have also begun having services at Roxboro, where we have
had about ten communicants. We worship in the Presbyterian
Church, and we have most kindly received by the community.
Comparison of the 1919 and 1920 budgets affords cause for
gratification, and is sufficient comment on the Nation-Wide Cam-
paign In 1919 our appropriations were $4414.12. Our estimated
income from parishes and missions was $2,967.00. The balance of
$1447 12 to be raised through the Woman's Auxiliary and the
Archdeacon's offerings. For the present year we have appropria-
tions amounting to $12,292.12. To cover this we have a pledged
income of $11,646.00. There are two items in the budget amount-
ing to $900.00 upon which no demand will be made; so that our
appropriations are fully covered and the Archdeacon's offerings
go to special objects.
Signed
N. C. Duncan
REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
The Committee has carried on the work vigorously. The finan-
cial condition has been good, and all but one of the fields filled,
until recently. The stipends have been paid promptly and the
treasurer reports a balance in the treasury.
The Archdeacon has been enabled to give a closer attention
to the mission fields as he has been required to fill fewer vacanies
than heretofore. A building committee* has been appointed to
look after the building of chapels at the mission stations and par-
ticularly at Wendell, Wake County, where the outlook is bright.
The Missionary preaching throughout the Convocation by Rev.
John Hartley, D. D., was successfully carried on, and it is hoped
that the same will become a permanent order of work.
The budget hereto appended was submitted to and adopted
by the Convocation in meeting at Tarboro.
Respectfully submitted,
Wm. H. Ruffin, Secretary.

136 Report of Archdeacons
REPORT OF THE ARCHDEACON OF CHARLOTTE FOR THE
YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31st, 1920.
To the Rt. Rev. Jos. Blount Cheshire, D.D.,
Bishop of North Carolina.
I respectfully submit my report as Archdeacon of the Con-
vocation of Charlotte for the year ending December 31st, 1920:
Services conducted in whole or part 126
Celebrations of the Holy Communion 65
Sermons and addresses 118
Baptisms : Infant 19
Candidates presented for Confirmation 22
Marriages 4
Burials 8
Tracts, etc., distributed 350
Pastoral visits 830
Conference with committees and vestries 5
The year 1920 marked a tremendous advance in the work of the
Charlotte Convocation. Never before have we had such abundant
cause for encouragement since the adoption of our Convocational
system. This home about in a large measure through the operation
of the Nation-Wide Campaign, and is being evidenced by the
following results:
1. Unprecedented offerings of personal service.
2. Increase in Sunday School and Church attendance.
3. A greater desire on the part of our people to inform them-
selves as to the needs and opportunities of the whole Church.
4. Increased contributions for the extension of the Kingdom
of God, both at home and abroad.
Our appropriations for the year, which were at least four
times in excess of any previous year, were fully and promptly
paid, with a small balance to carry forward.
While our local treasurers were not able in every instance to
meet their full apportionment, yet in many cases payment was
made in full, and some overpaid.
Beginning January 1st, the salaries of our missionary clergy,
which in times past have been shamefully inadequate, were placed
at a minimum of $1,500 per annum, and when possible a rectory
is provided.
On June 1st, the Rev. Harry C. Mazyck, formerly of Eutawville,
S. C, took charge of the Mayodan group of Missions, and is doing
excellent work.
On November 1st, the Rev. Jos. D. C. Wilson, formerly of
Wilkesboro in the Missionary Jurisdiction of Asheville, assumed
charge of the Cooleemee group of Missions in succession to the
late lamented Simeon J. M. Brown. Mr. Wilson has entered upon
Diocese of j^orth Carolina, 1921 137
the discharge of his duties with zeal and enthusiasm, and the
work in that very important field is going steadily forward under
his wise and efficient leadership.
At present Ave have only two unsupplied Missions in the
Convocation: St. David's, Laurinburg, and All Soul's, Ansonville;
however the Archdeacon is ministering to these congregations as
often as circumstances will permit.
During the summer and fall, acting under the instructions
of the Executive Committee, the Murdoch Mem'l Mission House in
Salisbury, which is being used as a residence for the Archdeacon,
underwent some much needed repairs, thus putting it in a more
habitable and presentable condition.
A very comfortable home has also been purchased in Statesville
for the minister-in-charge of Statesville and St. James', Iredell Co.
At present all our Churches and Chapels are in good repair,
and fully protected from loss or damage by fire.
William H. Hardtn, Archdeacon.

APPENDIX D
PART 1
TREASURER'S REPORT
FOR
THE FISCAL YEAR 1920
APPENDIX D
PART I
REPORT OF TREASURER
NATION-WIDE CAMPAIGN FUND
January 1, 1920, to December 31, 1920,
Your Treasurer respectfully submits liis report for the fiscal year
ending December 31st, 1920, as per attached copies under the follow-
ing headings:
Item 1: Summary of receipts and disbursements of all funds
for 1920, as per certified copy of auditors attached.
The audit of the Treasurer's books was made up to April 1st,
1921, and included 07ihj receipts for 1920 to April 1st, 1921.
Item 2: Receipts from Parish and Sunday School treasurers.
Women's Auxiliary and miscellaneous sources — divided for the
five objects of the Nation-wide Campaign, as apportioned by
your Diocesan Committee, with the total amount apportioned
against each church and the total amounts paid for 1920, with
the division of these amounts for each one of the Nation-wide
Campaign objects. Also specials — not applying to the Nation-
wide Campaign apportionment — for various other objects
which have been handled by your treasurer.
In submitting the attached reports, your Treasurer desires to
offer the following:
On being elected Treasurer by the Diocesan Convention held in
Charlotte, May 4th to 6th, 1920, the former Treasurer, after due
audit of his books, turned over the books and cash balances and I
assumed the Treasurership May 15th, 1920.
As requested by the action of the Convention, your Treasurer,
with able assistance of our Executive Secretary, Rev. Jno. L.
Jackson, worked out the apportionments on the percentage basis
for each church for each of the Nation-wide Campaign objects.
All funds received and reported at the Diocesan Convention, by
the former Treasurer, were re-divided, both receipts and dis-
bursements, and are included in the attached report, together with
all receipts by the present Treasurer.
Diocese of Xorth Carolixa, 1921 143
The statements sent out monthly have had remarkable success,
as your Treasurer finds that the majority of parish treasurers
remit promptly and as per amounts given in the statement. We
have discarded the haphazard way of remitting and are now putting
our Diocese on a business footing.
•The most gratifying result shown was that our Diocese on Decem-
ber 31st, 1920, had paid 99i47r of its quota to General Missions
and before February 1st, 1921, had paid 1007c and over, and was,
therefore, one of the eight Dioceses reported on March 31st, 1921,
by the General Board of Missions in the 100% class — being sixth
in point of percentage.
The Fourth Province lead all of the eight Provinces in per-
centage of payment of their quotas with 65%, and of its fourteen
Dioceses, North Carolina led the Province with its 100+%-
The Diocese had also met all of the needs for the other four
objects depending upon the Nation-wMde Campaign.
The statement shows a balance on hand of $841.90, being divided
in amounts apportioned as follows:
Religious Education and Social Service $818.09
Expense account 23.81
Your Treasurer would, therefore, ask the disposition of the
Convention as to these amounts.
Your Treasurer would further suggest a simpler method in
dividing the apportionments, as the present method entails an ex-
cessive amount of bookkeeping and waste of time, and some method
should be devised which w^ould save this unnecessary work. It
would vary the percentage allotments to each object of the Nation-
wide Campaign so little that none would feel material change in
the method.
Your Treasurer would, therefore, suggest that this matter be
placed in the hands of the Finance Committee of the Nation-wide
Campaign Fund, or of a special committee to be appointed by the
Convention with power to act, so that the 1922 funds may be divided
and handled in a simpler and more business-like way.
In conclusion, your Treasurer wishes to express his appreciation
for the courtesy and hearty co-operation given by each and every
Parish Treasurer and others with whom necessity has brought him
in contact, and to further say that it has been a great pleasure to
have served his Church and his Diocese.
Respectfully submitted,

144 Treasurer's Report for Fiscal Year 1920
AIDITOR'S EEPORT
As per your request, we have audited the books of the Nation-
wide Campaign Fund, Diocese of North Carolina, for the period
January 1st, 1920, to March 31st, 1921, covering all funds applying to
the 1920 fiscal year.
We have verified all cash transactions, tracing receipts into the
bank and checking disbursements with the cancelled vouchers.
The apportionments made for the year 1920 amounted to.$ 83,915.00
Paid for various objects 84,318.50
Balance overpaid 174.00
Where a number of churches overpaid their appor-
tionments on some of the objects, they were under-
paid on the others.
Besides the above amount paid on apportionments, there
was received for "Special" objects $ 3,007.14
The apportionment for the colored churches on General
Missions was $ 1,219.00
Total amount paid 2,272.40
Balance overpaid $ 1,053.40
We wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the assistance
rendered while making the audit.

The largest trust fund ever settled on the Diocese was that provided
by a deed of trust executed December 31, 1919, bv Mr. William A. Erwin,
of West Durham, in the sum of $30,000.00 to "the Provident Life and
Trust Co. of Philadelphia (Trustee), the proceeds of which are to be paid
quarterl}' each year to the treasurer of the Diocese to be remitted by
him, under the Bishop's direction, to the treasurers of the missions of
St. Joseph, West Durham, 3-5; St. Stephen, Duke, 1-5, and Good Shep-
herd, C'ooleemce, 1-5 parts. The proceeds remitted and distributed as
above for 1920 amounted to SI, 318. 19. The funds were so well invested
by the trustee that the treasurer is advised that in 1921 and hereafter
the annual proceeds will amount to $1,862. It is hoped that this generous
gift on the part of Mr. Erwin will prompt other liberal and zealous laymen
to do likewise.
I do hereby certify that I have audited the books and vouchers of
Henry M. London, Treasurer of the Diocese of North Carolina, for the
period beginning January 1, 1920, and ending December 31, 1920, and the
foregoing statement is a true exhibit of the operations of that period as
shown by said books and vouchers. The books are neatly and accurately
kept and everything is handled systematically.
